Aliexpress iPad Pro keyboard case: sucking like Bezos's Mistress
Disclaimer: I bought the iPad keyboard case linked below direct from Aliexpress. It’s actually a pretty cool case. It went for 86$ shipping included. Despite being horrible mangled, after dispute, I got only half of that back.
Disclaimer: I purchased two Rory (R) "Original Cinema Light" units at full retail from Rorylights.com. They're pretty cool. But if they're actually made or conceived by Rory (R), I'll be damned. BTW, I'm definitely to sponsored by them.
As embarrassing as the marketing/branding for the Rory Cinema Light is, it's actually a pretty cool product. But, like many Facebook and Instagram adverts, it pushes the boundaries between fast-buck-shenanigans and market-viable coolness.
Want to know more? Hit up the below link. Rory's generic off the shelf units which appear to be purchased from who knows where go for 60$.

Disclaimer: Cosina Japan lent me the Voigtlander Nokton Vintage Line 75mm F1,5 Aspherical for the purposes of this and other reviews. Many thanks, Cosina.
NOTE I: If you find the colours dull or muted, Tokyo area is in the middle of monsoon season. We've not seen the sun in weeks. There is no evening light, no morning light. All is grey.
Great lens. Somewhat muted, but not nut-brown or red colours like proper 1950s and 1960s lenses. This is how I described it to Cosinaphile at DPReview:
"I just tried it out: classic swirly bokeh, with compressed OOF zones at the outer portion of the frame. Thankfully, bokeh compresses toward the edges rather than expands out in expanding centrifugal swirls. Colour is brighter like a modern lens and doesn't go to red or brown. Cool lens, but handling not as good as the 50/1,5 or 35/1,7 classic Noktons made of brass."

Quite frankly, the SJ-MR100 is one of the best recorders ever made. Sure, it doesn't do MDLP, but it nails just about everything else. Sadly, you won't find a player in MDLP land that holds a candle to its haptics and physical UI.

I woke up Monday and saw it. Pro earphones! From Apple! I ordered, waited, received, and then took them for a walk.
TL;DW - good neutral sound, low amp/mic noise, great noise suppression, strange fit, and a tricky ear tip shuttle.

If you care to watch a lad riff on amp hiss and mechanical noise coming from portable Minidisc units, this is your video. Wowee! The base and target in this comparison is an iPod 5G (video). Units that are less noisy/hissy deserve kudos. Those that hiss more deserve some consternation.
